Description
I am an Chestnut Wood Vase. Just like the flowers I hold, I’m a natural beauty.
Curator’s Notes
A vase full of fresh flowers is a wonderful way to brighten the day, but we love smaller sizes that look good with just a single bloom or sprig. They’re more practical for daily use, and much easier to arrange. It was a joy to work with Makoto Koizumi to take the best of what we love about bud vases and create something special. The series is created with a variety of rare Japanese indigenous wood types. This wooden vase is elegant yet playful, and leans subtly to one side with the beauty of imperfection. The waves of wood grain play with the curves of the vase’s body to add movement to a piece that is dynamic by nature, its appearance seeming to alter as its flowers are refreshed, changing week by week.
